Flash Flood Guidance System

To provide Oman metrological service with real time information guidance to warn for flash floods

24

Flash Flood Guidance System

• Network of rainfall Observations• Weather Radars observed rainfall estimates• Satellites observed rainfall estimates• NWP rainfall forecasts

• Flash Flood Guidance products (1 – 6h lead time)• Warnings are transmitted to public & main

stakeholders (National Civil Defense, Police Ops & Water Resources)

25

Standard Operating Procedures

26

Implementation of Cell Broadcast Service

CBE: Cell Broadcast EntityCBC: Cell Broadcast Center

• To alert the public by integrating with the Early Warning System.• Geofencing introduced to define the effected area• CAP (Common Alert Protocol), ITU-T X.1303. as integration protocol

27

Cell Broadcast Service

• Developed country specific Handset standard to enable the CBS in mobile platforms

• Approached Handset manufacturers to enable the CBS on their handsets.

28

Drills (Simulations)

• CBS tests concluded using test handsets.

• Awaiting vendors releases
